Work in progress screenshot from a cover I am doing for Local Hero Press.

Just thought I’d share one of the many projects on my ‘art table’. This is a digital painting I am doing for a fantasy novel published by Local Hero Press.

As you can see, I’m still in the rough underpainting phase, which I am doing in Clip Studio Paint (Manga Studio). I will finish most of the rendering in black and white, and then move over into Photoshop to do the colors and finial tweaking/painting.

What’s nice about Clip Studio is that you can save your files as Photoshop files, which makes this kind of hybrid painting/creation very easy.
